on the last day of summer's transfer window to be reunited with his former manager Thomas Tuchel but the German coach just a few weeks later lost his job.

Aubameyang has told Chelsea's official YouTube channel:

"It’s obviously sad when someone leaves the club and obviously, I only saw him for a few days. But this is football and when you play football you have to adapt quickly and in some moments in the season, this can happen.

"I think he [Tuchel] was a bit frustrated and sad. Obviously, I will try to talk to him as soon as possible."

Former Arsenal star also has talked about Graham Potter who replaced Tuchel as Chelsea manager.

"I think he [Potter] is a really positive person and a great character. We will try to learn with him and to win as soon as possible. I think his ideas are very clear so I think it’s going to be easy. It takes time to adapt to each other but I think it’s going to be ok."

Aubameyang in this interview opened up on early career struggles and tough moments he has faced so far.

He said:

"I was okay but at the beginning of my career everyone was talking about me as a sprinter only.

"This hurts sometimes because you know where you’ve come from, you know you went through a lot of stuff and you always try your best and some people, even from your club say you’re not good at playing football."

Aubameyang also praised current Paris Saint-Germain manager Christophe Galtier who he worked with at St-Etienne.

"When I arrived in Saint-Etienne, I was happy because Christophe Galtier gave me confidence and it changed everything in my career. This is where I started scoring goals.”
